A moment suspended between intensity and calm.
This work captures the energy of a passing storm over Cairns, where light, water, and sky collide. The sky carries movement and tension, while the water below remains steady, almost grounding the scene. There is a quiet contrast between turbulence above, and stillness beneath.
Rather than depicting the storm as destruction, this piece explores it as transition, a release, a shift, a necessary force that clears and renews.
Painted with layered colour and soft movement, the work invites the viewer to pause within the moment, to feel both the weight of the storm and the peace that exists alongside it.
This work forms part of the Held by the Desert collection.
Selected works from this series were featured as part of the set styling for the upcoming production Black Snow.-3
